This is a full fendered T that was in the H.A.M.B forum a couple years ago. V-6 powered, not too low, not too high. Tires not too skinny and not too fat. Nice 32 grill...built in the 80's...I really like this one...
My T spent a lot of time in a Nevada desert before it was brought to California by the guys I got it from. Thought I better get back here and get this blog rolling...I was going to drag my pile of rusted T bits out for a picture today...but it started to rain...which is a good thing seeings that California is in a terrible drought this winter. Maybe tomorrow I'll have a photo-op. Or maybe this weekend...
Here is one that is currently on the E-Bay...Similar, but more Hot Rod...I like this one as well...
and now back to reality....
Here's the first piece of my puzzle, the cowl piece. This is where the windshield frame attaches, as well as the dash plate and the firewall. Even though it is very rusty, the metal is still in reasonably good shape. The plan is to straighten all the sheet metal up and do an assembly of all the parts. From here I'll determine what sort of inner support system I'll use. These older car bodies employ a lot of wood framing. Since I'm not doing a restoration...I might actually weld up some square and rectangular metal tubing supports. Next time , weather permitting I'll post more pics of my body parts. I've also collected some pics from the web of similar projects...stay tuned.
